After reading and analyzing the poem "Dulce et Decorum Est," by Wilfred Owen, we can answer in the following manner:
6. a) The action of the poem changes abruptly from the first stanza to the second. In the first stanza, the speaker conveys a sense of slowness and exhaustion as the soldiers limp through the mud.
In the second stanza, as gas-shells are dropped, the soldiers begin to run, yell, and stumble. The action changes from slow and tired to clumsy, fast, and desperate.
b) The language in the poem shows the abrupt change described above. In the first stanza, the author uses words such as "bent", "limped", and "fatigue" to convey how difficult it is for soldiers to walk being hurt and how tired they are.
In the second stanza, the author uses words such as "ecstasy", "clumsy", "yelling", and "stumbling". With those, he conveys the how hectic things get once the gas-shells are dropped.
- The poem "Dulce et Decorum Est" was published in 1921, after the first World War.
- Its name alludes to the line by the poet Horace, "<u>Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori</u>," which means "it is sweet and fitting to die for one's homeland."
- The poem by Wilfred Owen shows that it is not sweet nor fitting to die in a war.
- He describes the horrific image of a soldier drowning in his own blood and he is hit by a gas-shell.
- The poet advises against asking other to go fight in a war by using Horace's words.
- Only the soldiers who actually go and fight know of the real horrors of war - none of it is sweet.

The correct answer should be A. an allegory
Anecdotes are stories that actually happened and are out of the ordinary so they're fun because of that. Myths are stories about how the world was created or how the world works. Speeches can be about anything. Allegories are like long metaphors, like if a metaphor was turned into an entire story and they use heavy symbolism.
